The current trend of witnessing bizarre happenings is an ongoing pantomime. People in power misusing their position - paradoxically, gifted to them by the very same gullible ones - is nothing new in this country. What gets to be pathetic after such a misdemeanour is that the blighter clutches his chest and gets admitted into a hospital to show that he's very ill to avoid going to the jail!
They're our lawmakers! And the majority of them think that it's their birthright to dodge the law as they happen to be the privileged ones!!
The latest misdemeanour comes from the premises of the Maharashtra state assembly where about half a dozen legislators, from various parties, punched, kicked and slapped a policeman, Assistant Sub Inspector Sachin Suryawanshi who's now convalescing in a hospital. The joke is that all the political parties have done a lot of chest thumping and shed crocodile tears and each party has vowed that the guilty, if he were from their fold, would face dire consequences!
And what was poor Sachin's fault? He'd the audacity(?) to book an MLA's car for overspeeding!
The behind-the-scene-activity must have already begun. The ASI would be cajoled, threatened and pleaded with by the goons to give a statement clearing them and I won't be surprised if the hapless gentleman admits to his 'fault' of having provoked them!
Tailpiece.
Apologies. But the cynic in me is convinced that I'm not wrong in my assumptions! And if I'm wrong, I'd be the happiest! But these goons need to be shown the door!!
